So after a temporarily break, I return to the word of blogging and K-On where…K-On being K-On, not too much has happened. The girls did show off a new song, but otherwise, their lives just continue to go forward.
K-ON!
This episode didn’t work for me. Maybe it’s because I’m not a huge Ritsu fan as she’s my least favorite of the four girls. I don’t really know. It just didn’t click for me, and felt flat. Maybe it’s my mood. I’m dead tired right now.
I cannot explain the feeling of joy that overcame me as the show started. It’s so good to see the girls again. I think at this point, people already know whether they’re going to watch K-On 2 or not. I was a little worried how a second season would work for the show, but as [...]
Spring has arrived… That means sakura blossoms and zettai ryouiki. Ahhhh. Oh yeah, and I guess a new anime season too. I wonder if there’s a correlation. Source
Unfortunately, crappy, wet blanket Mio decided to come along for the ride too… And with that I’ve antagonized both the anti-moe trolls, as well as the Mio-moe trolls. By my calculations, this attack should have caused at least 80% of the anime fanbase’s collective heads to ‘splode like Mio under a spotlight. Mio can’t handle [...]
So K-ON! came in like a lion, with the buzz, hype and moe moe that only KyoAni can provide. Then it seemed to hit a bump in the road (or many bumps in the road) as the blogger fandom turned on it for not aspiring to be anything more than a moeblob. But then it [...]
If last week was the spiritual finale to the show, it seems like the writers decided to mail it in for this week. Maybe they were only getting paid for 12 episodes, because I’d want my figurative money back for this episode, which probably shouldn’t have existed and unfortunately ends the show on somewhat of [...]
Billing this episode as the finale is sort of misleading. More of a marketing ploy than anything. So the next episode (the real finale) is disconnected to the main storyline. Big whoop. It’s not like K-ON! is a real tightly wound, serial show where you have to see the previous episode to figure out what’s [...]
The big shocker this week is not Ritsu’s unexpected turn towards the serious, but the revelation that next episode is the season finale. Originally, K-ON! was expected to go for a 13 episode season. It remains to be seen whether that info was just wrong, if they plan on ending the show with a filler [...]
I’ve been really digging Hatsukoi Limited. It’s been the surprise of the pleasant season as far as I’m concerned. But for all the talk about its love dodecahedrons, it’s actually fairly straightforward. It’s usually straight lines or triangles (unless it’s ridiculously hot Misaki – in which case all lines point to her). So I’m going [...]
